When the container is full the `EMPTY WATER' indicator on the control panel will light, and the container MUST be emptied. However, we recommend that the container is emptied after each drying cycle. NOTE: Very little water will collect during the first few cycles of a new machine as an internal reservoir is filled first. To remove the container 1. Gently pull out the tray until it is completely removed. When it is full the water container will weigh about 4kg. 2. Empty the water from the outlet in the rear of the container. Slide the water container back into position. PUSH FIRMLY INTO PLACE. NOTE: If you have the option of drainage near the dryer it is possible to use the discharge kit to provide a permanent drain for the water collected by the dryer. This will remove the need to empty the water tray. All the information for assembly of the kit is contained in the kit envelope. 13 40005147. qxd 12/07/2007 13:08 Page 14 Condenser To remove the condenser 1.
